Canary is always sunny and cheerful - a typical "girl next door." She is the optimist of the group and is consumed with the need to cheer everybody up and make them smile. Like many optimists, Canary is somewhat naive, which makes her easy game for Murky Dismal... she's the one Color Kid who gets caught the most. Canary is Rainbow Brite's favorite Color Kid because yellow, the color of cheerfulness, is Rainbow's favorite color. Canary oversees the work of the yellow Sprites and meets the yellow color needs of the world.
